[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Blue6IX:
This thread is an attempt to collect all of the Bluetooth video game controller information we have into one place.

I would like to have a place to just come and soak it all in at, to help in figuring out a solution, and this thread should increase the likelihood of anyone who can add anything at all to solving this problem of doing so.

Feel free to post any information you have - links to other fixes on other phones for the same problem, thoughts on the problem, test reports of trying to get it to work or any information on trying to get it to work.

Currently the focus will be on the Sixaxis Playstation 3 Controller, and also on the Nintendo Wii Remote.

Both of these controllers have apps to enable them, and I will get the links transferred to this first posting sooner or later.

Seems to be a problem with sense-based ROMs, so let's see about working this out.

...More info to follow, this is a shell right now, but now a place to start dumping info in.

There isn't enough in this thread to put it in the dev section, so let's start compiling our information on this topic to get to the point of having a dev-section thread about it.

I look forward to any information people can contribute to this.

I have a Sixaxis controller in my possession, and someone who's trying to lend me a Wii controller if we can run into each other when it's available. Let's solve this problem.

Apparently is working fine in CM7 - will test when I have the chance. Maybe the problem is in the sense frameworks (just an offhand thought?)

Have you used the custom kernels Romanbb put out at all with CM7 and does it still work after flashing them?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] biggtubbzz:
in stead of copying the gfree and hboot files in to local run them frm the sd card???

will it work

Now unplug your device from the computer.

6. Run visionary to gain temp root. (If you were already permarooted w/s=off ignore this step.)

7. Open terminal emulator on your device, type "su", and hit enter to gain root privileges.

instead of this

8. Type "cd /data/local" and hit enter.

use this

cd /sdcard/

9. Now type "chmod 777 gfree" and hit enter to make the program executable.

10. Type "./gfree -f" and hit enter.

[General Questions and Answers] xatt15:
How can I become a XDA Developer? I'd love to become one, specifically programming for Android apps, ROMs, and stuff like that.

Can anyone give me an head start?

Specs:

MacBook Pro, Mid-2010

Processor: 2.4 Intel Core i5

Memory: 4GB 1067MHz DDR3

Graphics: nVIDIA GeForce GT 330M

OSX: Lion 10.7.2 (Build 11C74)

I can't seem to install Android Kitchen, and fink is too confusing for me.

I already have the AOSP source code for ICS.
[General Questions and Answers] Kailkti:
Learn java for programming apps. C for developing kernels. Both are similar to an extent so it shouldn't be that hard. I am unfamiliar with the offerings of a OSX but if you can dual boot to windows or Linux, get eclipse (the more preferable one) or netbeans for java and if you're on windows, visual c++ 2008 or whatever (dev c++ is very loose with its strictness in syntax so avoid that).

Books... Well these books contain a lot, and I mean a lot of information. They will have a lot of jargon which you will probably be unfamiliar with, so learning from one might be really difficult. So I suggest say a dummies book or something concise and in layman terms at first, then after maybe head first into java, a reference c manual or c how to program for the nitty gritty stuff or when you're more experienced.

Don't worry, your computer is more than enough for your stage right now, it'll probably take you a year or so or more to actually get up to the "developer" (note not professional developer level, that you will need your 4 years. xD) (if you take this really seriously e.g. classes, practise, reading, etc).
[General Questions and Answers] xatt15:
I have Eclipse for OSX, and it has the Android plug-in and can write Java and C programs.

But what language do I use for ROMs?
[General Questions and Answers] Kailkti:
it is written in both c and java. The java runs on top of the c. Most of what we use is in java, but the core (kernel (think drivers etc)) is in c.

If you are thinking of say a cyanogen mod level of modding (meaning changing the source code to improve android) then you will need a professional level of development skills, which will take a long time, unless you are some genius. But most chefs really only build a rom through using an existing rom, use a tool/ program to do say deodex or such, remove this app and that, put in this kernel, change this file to this file, and done, it's a custom rom. That requires no programming knowledge whatsoever.
[General Questions and Answers] xatt15:
You seem to know a lot. Could you be my mentor/tutor or something?
[General Questions and Answers] Kailkti:
Oh no, i'm still in high school lawl. I've only done computer science for one year and a half right now and that's it. I know nothing of java and its syntax and really I only know an intermediate level of c. So yeah i can't really tutor or help you, sorry. xD We'll be on the same road my firend, although my dreams aren't stopping with android. (I'm aiming for you holograms and car AI systems, you best be ready.)

Anyways there's a forum on xda dedicated to helping people learn how to develop roms/android and possibly apps called chef central. Head over there for the big guys to help. :D

They are both similar things. Tethering means you can share your phone's data connection with a single computer via a USB cable or via Bluetooth. Hotspot means you can share your phone's data connection to connect 5 other devices to wifi.

[Motorola Photon 4G] MultiDev:
I and several others have already asked this in the dev thread.

Its unknown exactly was it fixes. Motorola will only post a changelog when they release it as an OTA, and thats if they plan to (they may skip to a newer version).

The SBF is signed by Sprint, so it has been approved for use on the network and is probably stable for the most part.

Unfortunately, until its officially released, no one can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone. If you are comfortable with a possibly unstable phone, you can try it. Otherwise, leave it be.

I'm running it - it brought me back to the excellent battery life I was experiencing before 198_6.

[HD2 General] ferincr:
Makes a HD2 be a T9193 and not a T8585????

The reason I'm asking is because I disemboweled my T9193 and I cannot find another one at a decent price, but I might be able to buy a T8585 for a reasonable price and if the key part it still in one piece may be a repair shop can swap them around.

Or that does not makes any sense?

Thanks,
[HD2 General] huggs:
Should be the mainboard and possibly the lcd and outer housing. The 8585 is the 1024 Mb TMOUS right?

If so, then definitely the board would be different, and I think the Euro HD2's have a different lcd display than the TMOUS's.

What piece do you need to replace anyway?
[HD2 General] ferincr:
I don't really know to be honest...

It started with the usb port problem but after several disasembling combined with my lack of experience and use of wrong tools I don't know how far the damage is, especially because after I screwed a couple of things up I kind of gave for granted that the phone was not salvagable and started "peeling" things off just to see. That's why I thought of using this one as a donor but I'm not sure it would work if there are several pieces needed.

It was after that when I started looking for a new one that I realised that there are none T9193's on the market any more (not even in Australia where these were used mostly by Telstra)

The thing is that I need a phone with wi fi hotspot to use in February in a job out where I need to connect to internet on my laptop but I'm not sure what to buy. I wanted to give a try to the HTC Edge once it came out but if I spend $500+ now on a phone I won't be able to buy the Edge in few more months.

At the moment the only candidates I see are either the galaxy S2 Skyrocket or the HTC vivid.

And to be honest even though the Galaxy seems to be a better option I'm a HTC fan and after having the HD2 for almost 2 years I'm not sure I'll like Android.

Yes, I know it sounds stupid but I got used to WM 6.5 my girlfried has an Android phone an I played with it a bit but I'm totally lost with it.

So I either find a cheap unlocked 3G (with AT&T bands) and wifi hotspot to last until the Edge comes out, or ditch out now for either the Galaxy or vivid and forget about the Edge later

You have to be very careful doing this stuff though. You may want to google. What is rooting an android and also browse around the forums on here and read about rooting and the questions others have posted and the answers they were given before you attempt this. If you mess up rooting or trying to install a custom rom its very easy to break your phone making any mistake. Bottom line is read everything in the skyrocket q&a section general section , and development section about rooting you can before you try it.
